At the time of this review, Wildcards is the only DLC for Hand of Fate and adds new cards to the game for the player to choose.
Aside from the new items and encounter chains, Wildcards introduces new fates for the player: you can choose them before starting a new game and they'll give you both unique bonuses and specific weaknesses. Therefore, they can be used either to make the whole game more challenging or change your playable character to one more suited to take on the boss and encounters at hand.
Since Hand of Fate becomes more and more complex and fun to play the more cards are brought to the table, this DLC is basically a muast have for the owners of the game

This one adds around 8 "classes" to the game. So if you play as a Shadow Agent, the chance game is much easier, but combat is harder. Each of the classes has a (normally short but challenging) unique quest chain. Complete the quest to unlock cards that can be added to the deck even for 'other' classes.
Some people swear by this one. For me, other than having the added quests I think I prefer normal mode. But it's a fair price, and if you are enjoying the base game, why not add more to it? [or buy the bundle].

LOVE this expansion!!!! I feel like the game truly matured with all these new fates. You guys rock so damn hard. For 5 bucks this is twice the game. PLEASE keep making content for this lovely creation! Found a couple of minor bugs though:
Monks quest 3 has a few typos
If you have the curse that prevents the last enemy from being countered you cant finish the warrior trials where you need to counter all enemies.
Thank you for this experience, seriously. Love this game.

Great DLC, adds an easier mode, and plenty of content besides, a word of advice though, the "Explorer's Gift" fate card gives you an item which makes travel to already uncovered cards consume 0 food but still regenerate 5hp so it kind of breaks the game balance, making starvation far less harsh and ltting you regenerate health for free. Worth getting, but it does change the game dramatically if fates aside from the default are chosen.

Good dlc for a fan of the game. The fates are classes you can choose with their respective buffs and debuffs. Some also will just kind of have a neutral change to them. For example, you can choose one that is weaker in combat, but has better chances in a chance roll, or you can make it so that the only food you can consume is equipment you destroy and turn into ore. There's also some classes that have more cards built into the decks you're playing with to add more encounters.
If you don't want to choose one of these 9 fates you get from the dlc you can also just choose from a standard easy, normal, and hard mode too.
Basically, it just adds more ways to play the game and challenge yourself

I found that DLC more like an annoying chore that anything. Unlocking all the encounter and equipment cards took forever, it was just a dull grind. And I think there wasn't a single card in DLC that I would've found useful to put into my regular deck. So you will not really miss anything significant if you skip it.

While the idea of adding more classes as DLC seems great in theory, the unique mechanics of this DLC's classes are very poorly balanced with the game's procedural generation system. The classes vary wildly in both the difficulty of their playstyles and the difficulty of their individual questlines, with some classes even causing unwinnable scenarios if the dungeon generated for a playthrough doesn't include enough of the class's mandatory resource. I won't say that this DLC doesn't add anything to the game, but much of what it adds seems very poorly thought-out and doesn't really improve the base game.

[Original Post]
While I welcome new content for this game I thoroughly enjoy, I cannot recommend this expansion/dlc as of right now because of the numerous bugs located within. From graphical glitches to just out right game breaking ones, it isn't fun when you can't play the game or when game mechanics do not work as intended. And it isn't a few bugs, it is many. It feels like I am an alpha or beta tester right now informing bugs that would have easily been noticed if the developers themselves played each of the new "Fate" cards they added to the system. I am constantly alt-tabbing out of my game to report another bug in their forums. I hope they learn from this mistake for future DLC/Expansions and test their product before releasing it to the public. This is just really dissapointing.
[Edit June 07, 2015]
After numerous updates and continues work by the development team I can gladly say that the First Expansion, and game in general, is much more polished for it. While there are still some lurking bugs, I haven't found any that have been game breaking and really have caused me grief since I last reviewed it. Now I can gladly say to purchase this first expansion if you are already having a blast with the original product.

Essentially adds starting classes for your runs in the game. Play as a monk, a caravan guard, a warlord, a hoader and much more. Every card changes how you play the game, and they all have class specific encounters too that would eventually lead you to new cards for the base game if you complete them all. It adds to the replayability of the game. If you don't want to play as these special classes, then you can easily switch back to the default class. I believe that it is worth the 5$ if you like the base game.

This DLC adds a numbers of, as the store blurb mentions, "Fates" that modify your starting character in big ways. You can still play as the default adventurer if you'd like, but the new options come with entirely new rules, new equipment, and surprisingly different playstyles. On top of that, each new Fate has a new, unique sequences of encounters specific to that Fate. It's great stuff, and it adds a ton of replayability to the game for a very reasonable price.
